I think the ideal would be to include multiple sheets. I know if I put one on and tested it as I currently have my block mounted and found that I had uneven pressure, I would want to test different ways to mount it. At least yould offer a multi-pack, too, in addition to single sheets.

My only concern would be pushing the retail price too high as I think most could be done with a couple of tests although I could test market something like 6 X 9 sheet or 8.5 X 11? Maybe nice to have around when you need it but then you are talking $10's of and not spare change

for most coolers i feel 2-3 sheets would be all thats neccessary in my situations only two would be needed first to test pressure second to test a correction its not rocket science most coolers tend to have 1-4 parts to tighten knowning to loosen 1 tighten another to gain better overall pressure would be enough i feel.

If you're talking one 2"x2" square of contact paper for $3, I don't think $9 for a three-pack would be out of the question. I feel one would be a test to see how it looks, then another if you need to change something, and a third just in case. And if it works fine the second time, you have a spare to mess around with if you want to play around with something in the future.

Now, if I misunderstood you and it's actually three pieces for $3, then that would be awesome. A ten-pack would be only beneficial to the card-core people out there with multiple rigs and to hardware reviewers.

If you have any left I think I can test now since I need to install a different cooler on the I7-920 for crunching. If not its ok I am glad you got to do this for the community.

Plenty of samples still available.

I found a retailer that will do some test marketing on the C/P paper So I will send them 50 test kits next week. My intent here is to turn it over to them so I won't make any money off of it.

I do have a motivation of raising the bar here on internet testing in general and end user performance improvement , the reviewer in post 98 while he had a 3 C improvement in IC Diamond over AS5 at the end of the exercise his total improvement was 5C with the total lapping exercise which is fairly typical when using this paper combined with lapping. another on the OCUK giveaway one end user had a 7C improvement on his TR sink on the overall.

Maybe TechPowerup could be the first to review the new Product........?

That would be the right size pack @ the right price. As ski also noted a multi pak for multiple rigs and to hardware reviewers would fit right in to a marketing program.

See folks, this is why Andrew is so awesome!!!!!! He wants TPU users to be a first in new product review!!!!!! Very awesome IC!!!

got my sample today, gonna have to wait till i get a free day off to test it out but ill be posting my numbers here and doing a small article for a Total War Center publication testing MX4, and of course the IC diamond paste.

Got the paste in today. Looks to be about the same as MX-2, but it looked like the paste was much thicker than MX-2, so I'll wait about a week or so and give it some curing time, give it some time to spread out all nice and even...

Any more tubes left? I have a system that hasn't had the cpu thermal paste changed since the first time I installed it (e7400+p5ql-se) so I wouldn't mind seeing how well this paste goes against the stock intel

If there is any left I wouldn't mind a tube

And to apply this put a 5.0-5.5 mm bead and then let the cooler do the spreading?

Plenty of Tubes Left

I allotted 100 tubes for this Give-away and have given out about 30 samples so far
